Energy Stores & Transfer — 3D Interactive Simulation Three scenarios in one tool, all using the AQA energy stores framework: All three show live energy bars (KE / GPE / EPE / Thermal), a transfer label that updates direction each half-cycle, colour-coded energy particles, and AQA equations on demand. Damping can be toggled on/off mid-run […]

Conservation of Energy – Pendulum Simulation Conservation of Energy Simulation — Description & Class Activity What the Simulation Shows This interactive simulation demonstrates one of the most fundamental laws of physics: energy is never created or destroyed, only transferred between forms. A ball rolls in a cosine-shaped bowl track. Students drag it to any height

This simulation teaches power as the rate of energy transfer / work done. This approach matches the AQA GCSE Physics specification’s recommended emphasis that students understand power as how quickly energy is transferred (or how quickly work is done) and can apply (P = E/t) and (P = W/t) (and, for circuits, (P = IV).

Energy Stores Visual Simulation – Summary A highly visual, interactive physics simulation designed for GCSE students to understand the 8 types of energy stores through animation rather than text. Layout: Features: Educational Approach: Students learn by watching realistic animations that demonstrate how each energy store works, making abstract physics concepts concrete and accessible, particularly effective

Specific Heat Capacity Simulation – Summary Overview An interactive physics simulation demonstrating how different materials heat up at different rates when receiving the same energy input, illustrating the concept of specific heat capacity. Material Selection Four metals with different specific heat capacities: All compared against Water (c = 4200 J/kg°C) – Very high specific heat
